I never imagined my life could change so suddenly. One night, everything I knew was torn apart, and I was forced into the arms of Daemon Valerio—the mafia king whose name alone makes the city tremble. I became his bride, but in his eyes, I am nothing more than a pawn. A fragile girl trapped behind golden walls, living under the rule of a man who doesn’t love me.Daemon is cold, ruthless, and terrifying. Every glance from him feels like fire, every word a command I cannot disobey. He swore he would break me… and maybe he already has.But I am not as helpless as he thinks. Behind his icy exterior, I catch glimpses of something else—desire, obsession, maybe even the tiniest spark of love. Yet love in his world comes with a price. Secrets, lies, and danger lurk in every corner. One misstep, and I could lose everything… my freedom, my heart, even my life.oCan I survive the wrath of a mafia king? Or will I surrender to the fire he has awakened in me?Forced marriage. Mafia danger. Forbidden love. One woman’s fight for survival—and desire.
